Matthew 21

12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold doves.

13 And said unto them, “It is written, my house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.”

23 And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority doest thou these things? And who gave thee this authority?”

24 And Jesus answered and said unto them…

25 “A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, ‘Son, go work today in my vineyard.’”

29 “He answered and said, ‘I will not’: but afterward he repented, and went.”

30 “And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, ‘I go, sir’: and went not.”

31 “Whether of them twain did the will of his father?” They say unto him, “The first.” Jesus saith unto them, “Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.”

32 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.

33 But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.

All revolutions have failed. And when I say all, I mean all. The very concept of revolution proved absolutely futile, a mirage. Revolution means a rebellion organized. But you cannot organize a rebellion – that’s impossible – because in the very organization, the rebellion dies. Organization is against rebellion; so all revolutions fail because they try to succeed. To be successful they have to be organized. The moment they are organized they become another establishment. They may be anti-establishment but still, they have their own establishment. They cannot be non-establishment – that is impossible. Organize a revolution and you have killed it. An organized revolution is aborted already.
